The rapier is a long slender blade crafted by and for the finest of warriors who take dueling as an art. Although not as devastating as some of the other advanced weapons around, no weapon exists which can match the rapiers ability to parry opponents thrusts and strike back in the blink of an eye.
 
Base Damage: 5
 
why not give it + 2-5 dex so it will match the description, would bring some more strategy to fights?
 
If it would overpower something then make it only + 2 dex, i dont think someone will kill u with 5 base dmg, would be cool imo

Ok, not for thieves then, but if it wont give any dex then i think its better if theres no description then to have this one.

In my eyes, a weapon that adds at the least +2 dex, with no down falls, on a thief is rediculous.

Which is correct.  It would make it far to easy to walk around areas stealing.  Not really much use for attacking, unless in a duel you switch weapon between attacking and waiting for them to hit.  It wouldn't be acceptable in my opinion.

And then, after the 2 dex is added, it will be taken from stores and put as a boss drop, and sold for 300k.  Tongue

Since Dex effects stealing yes it would be hard to do, unless you make it that thieves cannot use it.

I will if you give me a decent reason. So far all you retards have done is made crap arguments, that don't actually mean anything.
 
If its a problem with stealing, then make it have a - effect. If +2 dext gave you an extra 5% chance to steal, then make the item effect be -5% chance to steal. Nothing hard about that, is there?

Alex, you'd probably have to make it like -10% stealing i think? For the shady areas? can't remember if it affects stealing...
 
But yeah, Mephistroth is right. why not thieves?

The 5% was an example.. I have no idea how much 2 dext affects stealing chance by.

I do not see how a thief could use a long sword, which is basically what a rapier is, only thinner.  Rapiers are used for sword dueling, aka swashbuckling, which I rarely see thieves do, beings they use covert abilities and assassinate.  I would imagine it would be difficult to assassinate someone with a long sword.  Hence the reason when I made it, I made it for the current classses.
